CLI display of ARP cache (Continued)

TABLE 22

Field

Description

Port

The port on which the entry was learned.

NOTE
If the ARP entry type is DHCP, the port number will not be available until the entry gets
resolved through ARP.

Status

The status of the entry, which can be one of the following:

• Valid - This a valid ARP entry.
• Pend - The ARP entry is not yet resolved.

Displaying the static ARP table

To display the static ARP table instead of the ARP cache, enter the following command at any CLI
level.

device# show ip static-arp

Static ARP table size: 512, configurable from 512 to 1024

Index IP Address MAC Address Port

1 10.95.6.111 0000.003b.d210 1/1

3 10.95.6.123 0000.003b.d211 1/1

This example shows two static entries. Note that because you specify an entry index number when
you create the entry, it is possible for the range of index numbers to have gaps, as shown in this
example.

NOTE
The entry number you assign to a static ARP entry is not related to the entry numbers in the ARP
cache.

Syntax: show ip static-arp [ ethernet [slotnum/]portnum|mac-addressxxxx.xxxx.xxxx[mask]|ip-
addr[ip-mask]][num]

The slotnum parameter is required on chassis devices.

The portnum parameter lets you restrict the display to entries for a specific port.

The mac-addressxxxx.xxxx.xxxx parameter lets you restrict the display to entries for a specific MAC
address.

The mask parameter lets you specify a mask for the mac-addressxxxx.xxxx.xxxx parameter, to
display entries for multiple MAC addresses. Specify the MAC address mask as "f"s and "0"s, where
"f"s are significant bits.

The ip-addr and ip-mask parameters let you restrict the display to entries for a specific IP address and
network mask. Specify the IP address masks in standard decimal mask format (for example,
255.255.0.0).

NOTE
The ip-mask parameter and mask parameter perform different operations. The ip-mask parameter
specifies the network mask for a specific IP address, whereas the mask parameter provides a filter for
displaying multiple MAC addresses that have specific values in common.
